Book Review!!

Alright...It's time for a book review!

Counterpoint (Song of the Fallen, #1)

by: Rachel Haimowitz

This is a m/m erotic romance with elves and humans...oh my!

Nitty gritty details: Humankind is preparing for the surge...a battle between the darkers (animals that are hell-bent on ending humanity) and their survival. Prince Freyrik is in over his head in preparations for this battle...when he is blindsided by Ayden.

Ayden is an elf who despises humans...he has his reasons, but now he's caught between a rock and a hard place (pun intended) when his sister's welfare depends upon his submission to a race he hates the most...humans. Can Freyrik and Ayden reach common ground, fall in love, overcome centuries of hate and survive the Surge?

My review: From the start I was invested in not just one of the heroes lives, but both. A full range of characters with dynamics that keep you gasping and wanting more. I truly enjoyed this book and plan on reading its sequel! If you love m/m, elves and a book that tests the boundaries of good and evil...this is the book for you!

About Me

Astrid Cielo is a Mississippi girl who enjoys a variety of things. By night, she is a nurse in her local ER, and by day, she is spilling her imagination out on paper.

Astrid began writing when she was a child her stories featuring a variety of characters (including her imaginary friends). When she was in high school she wrote her first completed story and was published twice in poetry anthologies. Gathering her courage, Astrid self-published her first book, Surrender Serenity, Salin's Salvation, Book 1 and enjoyed every minute of it.

Now she balances her time between being a nurse (which she loves) and writing down the scenes that play out in her mind. She also plays World of Warcraft (which all of her friends think is weird)!
